The Senator’s Inspiration For “Pac Pay”
While the pandemic caused the wide majority of businesses to cease, this didn’t stop the Senator from finding ways on how he can help his countrymen.
According to Pacquiao, he and his team was able to see the opportunities that lay ahead, amidst the pandemic. Moreover, he said that the COVID-19 pandemic was one of the biggest inspirations he had upon building Pac Pay.
Amid this pandemic, we have seen an incredible opportunity to adopt digital technology, including global digital payments. We entered the regional market with the intention of helping our businessmen grow. This will be beneficial to MSMEs and Pinoy customers.”

Apart from the fact that it’s Filipino-owned, it might be helpful if you think about the bonuses. No, or only a few online payment platforms offer some types of incentives for using their platform – think of PayPal for an instance.
Do you get any reward? GCash – while it’s something you can use, some OFWs might find it difficult – even impossible to use because you need a PH phone number.
Pac Pay and Other Ventures of Our Senator
If you thought Pac Pay is the only thing our Senator is busy about, think again.
Before Pac Pay, Senator Manny Pacquiao also released his own cryptocurrency, Pac Coin. In case you haven’t heard of it yet, our dear Senator made the launch back in the first week of September, 2019.

It’s a cryptocurrency that has been in trade and en route since last year.
Back when one of the biggest typhoons in the country hit this year, Senator Pacquiao promised to donate all of his earnings and talent fees to typhoon victims. He said this amidst the deal or the contract he had with Globe Telecom; it was a deal about providing them streaming rights to all his boxing matches in the future.
What do you think about Pac Pay as well as the other plans of our dearest Senator? Can this really help and aid in the development of transactions to and fro the country? Furthermore, would it really serve its purpose to assist our countrymen inside and outside the Philippines?
